Who can get this money? Anyone who gets a place on a first degree course,although a student who has already attended a course of advanced further education may not.Students must also have been resident in the UK for at least three years,which can exclude some students from overseas. SPECIAL CASES If a student has worked before going to college? A student who is 26 or more before the course starts and who has worked for at least three of the previous six years will get extra money-f155 a year if 26,increasing to a maximum of f615 at 29 or more. If a student is handicapped? LEAs will give up to f500 to help meet extra expenses-such as buying a tape recorder for a blind student,extra heating or special food. Banking? Most of the big banks offer special services to students who open accounts(in the hope that they will stay with the bank when they become rich officials).A student won't usually have to pay bank charges as long as the account stays in credit.Some banks allow students to overdraw by f100or +一 so,and still don't make charges(though they do charge interest). 40.The phrase"a grant"in the first line most probably means_ A.bank interest B.a credit card C.an education fee D.financial aid 41.A student from Japan who has been studying in England for a year and intends to go to college in a few months will 世n hono ad no13 A.be unable to get money from any LEA B.get money if taking a first degree course C.get money from LEA when finishing his course D.have to open a bank account before getting money hi cont-0l-s.a 42.A31-year-old nurse wishes to qualify as a doctor at a university.She has worked Tg0地oTT since she was 25.How much extra money will she get a year?

"She was 5 feet 8 inches tall,had fair hair,and wore a colored skirt."More often,we try to get inside the other person to pinpoint his or her attitudes,motions,motivations,abilities,ideas and characters.Furthermore,we sometimes behave as if we can accomplish this difficult job very quickly-perhaps with a two-second glance. We try to obtain information about others in many ways.Social scientist Berger suggests several methods for reducing uncertainties about others:watching,without being noticed,a person interacting with others,particularly with others who are known to you so you can compare the observed person's behavior with the known others'behavior;observing a person in a situation where social behavior is relatively unrestrained or where a wide variety of behavioral responses are called for;deliberately structuring the physical or social environment so as to observe the person's responses to specific stimuli;asking people who have had or have frequent contact with the person about him or her;and using various strategies in face-to-face interaction to uncover information about another person::questions,self-disclosure(自我表露)，and so on. Getting to know someone is a never-ending task,largely because people are constantly changing and the methods we use to obtain information are often imprecise.You may have known someone for ten years and still know very little about him.If we accept the idea that we won'tever fully know another person,it enables us to deal more easily with those things that get in the way fcwedret(前后不-致的)behavior. 44.The word"pinpoint"in paragraph one is closest in meaning to C.identify D.explain B.obtain A.appreciate 45.What do we learn from the first paragraph? A.People like to be described in cold,objective words. B.It is impossible to get inside a person. C.It is difficult to describe a person in words. D.Getting to know a person is usually no easy job. 46.It can be inferred from Berger's suggestions that A.people reveal their true self on every occasion B.the best way to know a person is by making comparisons C.in most cases we should avoid contacting the observed person directly D.face-to-face interaction is the best way to uncover information about a person. 47.The author's purpose in writing the passage is to A.warn readers of the negative side of people's characters. B.give advice on proper behavior for social occasions. C.provide ways of how to describe people. D.discuss the various aspects of getting to know people.
